LEAN SIX SIGMA FOR HOSPITALS: SIMPLE STEPS FO FAST AFFORDABLE ARTHUR J. / AND FLAWLESS HEALTHCARE Księgarnia

Lean Six Sigma for Hospitals: Simple Steps to Fast, Affordable, Flawless Healthcare explains how to use tested Lean Six Sigma methods and tools to rapidly improve hospital operations and quality of care and reduce costs.

These proven strategies follow the patient from the front door of the hospital or emergency room all the way through discharge, examining key aspects of patient flow and quality. The trail of billing and collections is also followed to discover and eliminate cash flow leaks.

Real-world case studies from major hospitals illustrate successful implementations of Lean Six Sigma.
